You don't take a photograph, you make it.
I tried to keep both arts alive, but the camera won. I found that while the camera does not express the soul, perhaps a photograph can!

Photographers and artists contribute a lot to the world and have a right to exist in relative security and comfort.
There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.
Art is both the taking and giving of beauty; the turning out to the light the inner folds of the awareness of the spirit. It is the recreation on another plane of the realities of the world; the tragic and wonderful realities of earth and men, and of all the inter-relations of these.
